Thank you for posting your views and saying "good for developing, and most staff are friendly" I note that you no longer work at HKA. Thank you for contributing to the growth of HKA and I wish you well wherever you are now. I note that you think we care more about profit than our people; which I strongly disagree with. We know that our people are the most important factor in HKA and we care deeply about them and help them to enjoy and succeed. A few facts that challenge your view – in our 2021 global colleague survey these questions out of 10 scored most favorably: 8.4/10 My manager cares about me as a person. 8.11/10 My colleagues in HKA are treated equally, fairly and are included 8/10 Employee health and wellbeing is a priority at HKA. 7.9/10 Overall, how satisfied are you working at HKA? I appreciate that you saw things differently to many of our people and to myself – I respect that your view is different. Wishing you all the very best for a positive future. Best regards Kate Wood Partner, Chief People Officer

HKA is a great place to work, grow and play…this is what our colleagues tell us, so your review is extremely different. I do need to present the correct fact base – we have authentic reviews on Glassdoor and we don’t need to “write fake reviews” as you assert. I am sorry for you that you did not enjoy your time at HKA, that is a shame and certainly not what we want for any colleague. If you want to reach out to me now and you think I can assist then please contact me at katewood@hka.com. I respect that this post is your opinion, notwithstanding that I do see HKA very differently to you and our engagement survey results from our people present a very positive HKA. We had a 92% participation rate in our engagement survey which we were very pleased with. To illustrate why our people are very proud of working for HKA and enjoying themselves – I have picked five questions from our engagement survey and shared the score that covers the points you make in your post. Overall, how satisfied are you working at HKA? Scored 7.9 out of 10 How likely is it you would recommend HKA as a place to work? 7.8 out of 10 I feel like I am given enough freedom to decide how to do my work. 8.4 out of 10 My manager provides me with the support I need to complete my work. 8.3 out of 10 Employee health and wellbeing is a priority at HKA. 8.0 out of 10 I recognize that we are seeing things differently, which is what makes the world go around. Wishing you all the very best for your future. Best regards Kate Wood Partner and Chief People Officer

Thank you so much for saying you recommend HKA and we have a positive business outlook. We appreciate the time you have taken to share your views, as a current employee and Partner. Thank you also for everything you do which helps us make HKA even better and bigger, as we have a growth mindset and agenda. Wonderful that you have stayed at HKA for over twenty years; you will have seen many changes and have helped us to keep improving. Roll on the next few years positively! I do agree with you – the comradeship is first class here. It is a real pleasure to work with our people and we try really hard to put them first too. Always more to do here. Sorry that sometimes we have so many initiatives on the go. I am sure we can do more to manage this better; although the intent is positive. Thanks for your patience and bearing with us when perhaps we go too fast or could do something better. Wishing you a safe and great 2022. Best regards Kate Wood, Partner, Chief People Officer
